 * Alice in Chains influence and comparison is mentioned in this paragraph concisely and to the point. "The overall sound of the band's first two albums have been compared to Alice in Chains' album Dirt. However, Godsmack has attempted to distance themselves from the Alice in Chains comparison with Erna stating in an interview with Matt Ashare, "I've just never really heard that in our music."
 * The rest is not needed based on two facts. First, disdaining the band reputation in their wiki page by putting the band originality under question that spread by some of Alice in Chains fans. Second, this subject is addressed in History,
 * Formation and All Wound Up... (1995–1997) section: "Many people think the band's name stemmed from an Alice in Chains song, but according to Erna, the band's name came from a small and personal incident. "I was making fun of [our drummer at the time] who had a cold sore on his lip and the next day I had one myself and somebody said, 'It's a god smack.' The name stuck. We were aware of the Alice In Chains song but didn't really think much about it."
